Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces sliced turkey breast
- 1 medium apple (preferably Honeycrisp or Fuji)
- 0.25 cup chopped walnuts
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 2 slices sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon butter (optional, for toasting)
Instructions
Wash and core the apple. Slice it thinly into round discs or wedges, depending on preference.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until combined. This will be your sandwich spread.
Toast the sourdough bread slices lightly in a toaster. For an extra golden, buttery finish, heat a skillet over medium heat, spread butter on each side of the bread slices, and toast them in the skillet until golden brown.
Spread the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard mixture on one side of each toasted bread slice.
On two of the bread slices, layer a lettuce leaf, sliced turkey breast, a few apple slices, and a sprinkle of chopped walnuts. Top with a slice of cheddar cheese.
Place the remaining bread slices on top of each sandwich, spread-side down.
Optional: If you want a melty, warm sandwich, return the assembled sandwich to the skillet. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the cheese melts.
Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately. Enjoy with your favorite side, such as a crisp salad or a handful of chips.
